Best photo editing laptop?

[A Perfect Circle]

Hey there : )

I’m shopping around for a photo editing laptop (possibly video in the future) and would appreciate your feedback. It’ll be my main and only computer as of now.

Which options would be best:

MacBook Pro M1

Microsoft Pro

Microsoft Studio

16 or 32 core?

513 GB or 1 TB?

Thank you so much!

Always buy the best you can afford, if not you will regret it, good luck...

ditto jeff. i always buy a high end gaming laptop with the newest gen video card in it and lots of vram.

Yep, high end gamer with a separate high end graphics card and the max ram It will hold.
The better editing software will use the GPU more than the CPU so don’t skimp there.

Get what suits your budget. If you are looking into commercial photography, you'll want a Mac. An external editing monitor will be a big plus
